Essay #1Taking a Position on Food Due by 1159pm on Sunday.docxSALU18
Essay #1:Taking a Position on Food
Due by 11:59pm on Sunday April 23rd
We manipulate the planet and all of its creatures. We create, we consume, we build, and we
destroy, but how often do we consider the processes and people that provide unceasingly for our
unquenchable appetites? How often do we consider the consequences? This essay asks that you
consider the inner (and outer) workings of the US food system and then take a position on a
narrowed down aspect of it.
During this project we might ask ourselves any combination of the following: where does our food
come from, and at what cost? How have our foods been processed, conceived, even constructed, and then shipped and
stored? How do we treat the animals we eat? How should we treat them? How are they killed? How conscious are
we of the world we are taking from every single day? Where do we fit in? What do we have to say?
To accomplish your task, you will be using pairings of articles I provide in order to take part in
an ongoing conversation about food. These readings will require you to look closely at what we
eat and how our consumption shapes the world, in both positive and negative ways.
You will need to first consider our relationship with food and the consequences of our eating
habits, on individuals, societies, and the planet that we share, then narrow down your focus to an
individual and focused topic/idea, which you will then research independently so that you might
enter into a scholarly conversation. The goal of this essay is to either make your own claim about
your subject, or to support an already established claim with rational and logical reasons and
evidence in order to convince your reader to take up the same position that you hold.
This essay need not be a soapbox for any political agenda; instead, we are looking for a balance
in rhetorical strategies. Using ethos, pathos, and logos effectively means respecting all viewpoints
while backing up your claims with reputable sources and logical insights/analysis.
In the wise words of Christopher Hitchens: “That which can be asserted without
evidence, can be dismissed without evidence.”
While I value each and every one of your opinions, scholarly readers are less forgiving. Imagine
your audience to be educated readers who are familiar with the topic and themes we will be
exploring. These readers will expect you to back up your claims, and to use reputable sources.
See the end of this prompt for paper specifics / requirements.
Reading and Research
I am providing you with a group of food-related readings. Some of the readings will be
mandatory, as in I expect everyone to read them and use them in their papers. The others are
paired options that you will choose from. Each reading will be labeled on the Module I introduce
it as either mandatory or optional. They are also listed at the end of this prompt.
Make sure to take detailed notes of the sources you do read. It is alw ...
New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

Title: Sense of Smell
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path

Couples presenting to the infertility clinic- Do they really have infertility...Sujoy Dasgupta
Dr Sujoy Dasgupta presented the study on "Couples presenting to the infertility clinic- Do they really have infertility? – The unexplored stories of non-consummation" in the 13th Congress of the Asia Pacific Initiative on Reproduction (ASPIRE 2024) at Manila on 24 May, 2024.
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

Run on sentence day 12 presentation
1. Agenda
• Grammar – Run-On Sentences
• Exploratory Essay Review
• Live Writing
• Close
• Homework: 1) Find another possible source.
Do the same summary exercise.
• 2) Read and Annotate “Anxiety: Challenge by
Another Name” pp. 94-97
3. Run-On Sentences
• Run-on sentences are independent clauses
that have not been joined correctly.
• But Alisa: What is an Independent Clause?
• Easy: An Independent clause is a word group
that can stand alone as a sentence.
• (This means it 1) has a subject, 2) has a verb
and 3) expresses a complete thought.
5. Run-On Sentences
• When two independent clauses appear in one
sentence, they MUST be joined in 1 of 2 ways:
1. With a comma and a coordinating
conjunction (FANBOYS – for, and, nor, but, or,
yet, so)
2. With a semicolon (;) or occasionally with a
colon (:) or a dash (-)
6. Recognizing Run-On Sentences
• Fused Sentence:
• When a writer puts no punctuation mark and
no coordinating conjunction between
independent clauses. Example:
• Air pollution poses risks to all humans it can
be deadly for asthma sufferers.
7. Fixes
• Comma and
coordinating
conjunction:
• Air pollution poses risks
to all humans, and it
can be deadly for
asthma sufferers.
• Semicolon:
• Air pollution poses risks
to all humans; it can be
deadly for asthma
sufferers.
8. Your Turn
• Recognizing run-on
sentences is beneficial
to writers it helps them
eliminate clumsy
writing from their work.
• Fix??
10. Recognizing Run-On Sentences
• More common is the insidious comma splice –
two (or more) independent clauses joined
with a comma but without a coordinating
conjunction.
• Type A – Comma alone.
• Air pollution poses risks to all humans, it can
be deadly for asthma sufferers.
11. Recognizing Run-On Sentences
• Type B – Comma with a word that is NOT a
coordinating conjunction (this is why we
memorize the FANBOYS).
• Air pollution poses risks to all humans,
however, it can be deadly for asthma
sufferers.
• “However” is a transitional expression and
cannot be used with a comma to join two
independent clauses – use a semicolon.
13. Revising Run-On Sentences – 4 Choices
• Choice #1 – Use a Comma and a coordinating
conjunction (FANBOYS – for, and, nor, but, or,
yet, so).
• Example: Air Pollution poses risks to all
humans, but it can be deadly for asthma
sufferers.
14. Revising Run-On Sentences – 4 Choices
• Choice #2 – Use a semicolon (or, if
appropriate, a colon or a dash). Use “degrees
of separation” to determine if colon is ok.
• Example: Air pollution poses risks to all
humans; it can be deadly for asthma sufferers.
• Air pollution poses risks to all humans;
however, it can be deadly for asthma
sufferers.
15. Revising Run-On Sentences – 4 Choices
• Choice #3 – Make the clauses into separate
sentences.
• Example: Air pollution poses risks to all
humans. It can be deadly for asthma sufferers.
16. Revising Run-On Sentences – 4 Choices
• Choice #4 – Restructure the sentence, perhaps
by subordinating (!!!) one of the clauses.
• Example: Although air pollution poses risks to
all humans, it can be deadly for asthma
sufferers.
19. Writing Prompt
• Choice A – Evaluate your source. Why is it
credible? What perspective/point of view does it
offer in response to your anchor question? Which
part of the source in particular are you likely to
engage deeply with in your Exploratory Essay.
• Choice B – Describe your situation/scenario. Why
are you curious about/perplexed by it? What do
you hope to satisfy by the time you explore three
different sources/perspectives?
21. Exploratory
Essay Revisited
Remember, many paper
assignments call for you to
establish a position and defend
that position with an effective
argument.
However, some assignments are
not argumentative, but rather,
they are exploratory.
Exploratory essays ask questions
and gather information that may
answer these questions.
However, the main point of the
exploratory or inquiry essay is
not to find definite answers. The
main point is to conduct inquiry
into a topic, gather information,
and share that information with
readers.
22. Got that????
• You do not have to argue for a solution to the
problem at this point.
• The point of the exploratory essay is to ask an
inquiry question and find out as much as you
can to try to answer your question. Then write
about your inquiry and findings.
23. Introduction
• Set the context – provide general information about
the main idea, explaining the situation so the reader
can make sense of the topic and the questions you will
ask
• State why the main idea is important – tell the reader
why s/he should care and keep reading. Your goal is to
create a compelling, clear, and educational essay
people will want to read and act upon
• State your research question – compose a question or
two that clearly communicate what you want to
discover and why you are interested in the topic. An
overview of the types of sources you explored might
follow your research question.
24. Looking Ahead: Forecast
• If your inquiry paper is long, you may want to
forecast how you explored your topic by
outlining the structure of your paper, the
sources you considered, and the information
you found in these sources. Your forecast
could read something like this:
25. Sample Forecast
• In order to explore my topic and try to answer my
research question, I began with news sources. I
then conducted research in scholarly sources,
such as peer-reviewed journals. Lastly, I
conducted an interview with a primary source. All
these sources gave me a better understanding of
my topic, and even though I was not able to fully
answer my research questions, I learned a lot and
narrowed my subject for the next paper
assignment, the problem-solution report.
27. Live Writing
• Extend your journal entry into a Shitty First
Draft of your introduction, or a Shitty First
Draft of your examination and response to
Source Number One.
28. Homework
• 1) Find another possible source.
Do the same summary exercise.
• 2) Read and Annotate “Anxiety:
Challenge by Another Name” pp.
94-97
